The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When using the Administrative Wizard under Windows NT Server 4.0, the Add User
Accounts option creates a User's Home Directory. The directory is created with
the Everyone group having Full Control rights. It should be created with only
the Owner having Full Control permissions.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, do either of the following:
- Use User Manager for Domains to create the User's Home Directory; it will
give the directory the correct permissions, and the user will have Full
Control.
-or-
- After creating the directory with the Administrative Wizard, use Explorer to
modify the permissions.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT Server 4.0. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
